The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Urban Management Centre (UMC) today hosted a half-day-long cultural event to celebrate their three-year partnership under the Ahmedabad Sanitation Action Lab (ASAL) program.

At USAID, we take partnership very seriously and believe that it is part and parcel of how we operate in India. Our mantra has been: “if you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to far, go together.”Over the past few years, we’ve worked with more than 100 organizations from the private sector where we co-fund and co-design programs to address development challenges in the area of maternal and child health, tuberculosis, energy, early literacy, WASH, and financial inclusion.

The Impact Investors Council (IIC) in partnership with the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and IPE Global today hosted an event aimed at building awareness and encouraging wider participation in Impact Investing in India.
